Presentation transcript:

Chapter 1

 Make observation  Ask question  Develop hypothesis  Test hypothesis  Analyze Data/Draw Conclusions  Develop Theory

 Geology  Oceanography  Meteorology  Astronomy

 Geology: Study of the solid Earth  Oceanography: Study of Earth’s oceans  Meteorology: Study of Earth’s atmosphere  Astronomy: Study of the universe beyond Earth

 Knowledge gained by study

 Independent Variables ◦ Factors that can be changed during the experiment  Dependant Variables ◦ Factors that change due to a change in the independent variables Which variables are in scientific experiments?

 General statement that tells what is observed

 Explanation of happenings that is consistent with observations.

 Conflicting information found later.

 Computers  Medical Equipment  Airplanes

 The cause of natural events can be discovered through careful observation and experimentation.

 International System of Units  Common system of measurement

 The theory is changed to fit with the new information.

 Group that serves as a standard of comparison with another group - both groups are the exact same except for one factor.

 They can predict potential disasters.

 Track the movements of the sun, moon, and planets.
